Tuning: E A D G B E

^CEast is east and west is west

And the wrong one I have chose

^FLet's go where I'll ^Ckeep on ^Fwearin' Those ^Cfrills and ^Amflowers and ^Cbuttons and ^Ambows

^CRings and ^Fthings and ^G7buttons and ^Cbows ^G7

Don't ^Cbury me in this prairie

Take me where the cement grows

^FLet's move down to ^Csome big ^Ftown Where they ^Clove a ^Amgal by the ^Ccut of her ^Amclothes

And ^Cyou'll stand ^Fout in ^G7buttons and ^Cbows

I'll ^Flove you in buckskin Or skirts that you've home^Cspun

But I'll ^Amlove you longer stronger where Your ^D7friends don't tote a ^G7gun

^CMy bones denounce the buckboard bounce

And the cactus hurts my toes

^FLet's vamoose where ^Cgals keep ^Fusin' Those ^Csilks and ^Amsatins and ^Clinen that ^Amshows

And ^CI'm all ^Fyours in ^G7buttons and ^Cbows

Gimme ^G7eastern trimmin' where ^Cwomen are women ^G7In high silk hose and ^Cpeek-a-boo clothes

^G7And French perfume that ^Crocks the room ^G7And I'm all yours in ^Fbuttons and ^Cbows

^FButtons and ^Cbows ^Fbuttons and ^Cbows
